A tree of peach blossoms pressing the prime minister

Chapter 194

You were smiling before, why did you cry all of a sudden?
Lu Zhilan came back to her senses, only to find that there was nothing in front of her. She quickly wiped away her tears, adjusted her makeup, and said with a smile, "I suddenly remembered something and felt sad. How far is it?"

"We can't go to the imperial mausoleum, so we can only go to the nearby Jiuchong Mountain. You can take a look at it from a distance and pay your respects."

"Okay." Lu Zhilan agreed, obediently leaning against the wall of the car and waiting.When they got to the place, they got out of the car with the things used for worship, and looked back at Fangrui with a smile: "I will go up by myself, you don't need to follow."

"This..." Fangrui frowned: "What if there are wild animals on the mountain? Why don't you take two followers up?"

"No need." Lu Zhilan said, "I have been to this mountain before."

It was here that she first met Emperor Ming De by pretending to be a lost girl.Such a trick is very old, and it would definitely not work if someone else did it, but for some reason, Emperor Ming De, who had been smart for half a lifetime, actually moved his eyes when he saw her, and really asked her to speak in front of the emperor.

"What's your name?" he asked.

"Minister girl Lu Zhilan." She replied faintly, "Thrown into the mountains by her fiancé, I think she will be buried in the belly of a wolf. Thank you, Your Majesty, for saving me."

Everything started with a lie. She had never told the truth to Emperor Mingde. At that time, she was still thinking about Shen Zaiye, so she made up a fiancé.

I didn't expect this lie to make everything logical after that. The emperor felt sorry for her that she met such a cruel fiancé and took her to climb the Jiuzhong Mountain. He heard her say a lot of things, and finally smiled and said: "I haven't done it yet." Having met a woman like you, why not go back to the palace with me and try life in the palace?"

Lu Zhilan was a little surprised, because they arranged for her to meet the emperor at Jiuchong Mountain, which was actually just the first step. They wanted to see if she fit the emperor's eyes. If she did, they would make other arrangements later.

Unexpectedly, Emperor Mingde would take her back to the palace based on this sight.

Lu Zhilan nodded in a daze, then looked at him puzzled and asked: "It's inevitable that a girl still has a shadow of her fiancé in her heart, the emperor doesn't mind?"

"That's what makes it interesting." Emperor Mingde smiled and said, "Don't you know? Kings like to conquer the most, whether it's territory or women."

She was amused by this, and after thinking about it, she put her hand in his.

I thought that both of them started without sincerity, and her life in the palace would definitely not be easy. Who knew that after she entered the palace, Emperor Mingde actually put three thousand favors on her alone, coaxing her pain Then, give what you want.

Lu Zhilan had feelings, she could feel that Emperor Ming De just wanted to conquer her at first, but after a long time, he also moved his heart, so he slowly let go of all his guard against her, let go of the emperor's airs, and gently Embracing her, he said, "You tell me who your fiancé is, and I will have someone kill him."

Can't laugh or cry, what she can't deny is that the feeling of being pampered is so good that she slowly puts this person in her heart.

Before meeting Shen Zaye, she had always been peaceful, but after the meeting, she realized that she had no complaints in her heart, nor could she completely ignore them.Emperor Mingde's gentle pampering failed to dispel her obsession, so that she made one wrong step after another.

"The two of you are actually brothers and sisters?" When they met, Emperor Mingde breathed a sigh of relief: "I haven't been able to find out the details of Lan'er, if so, then I can rest assured that the relationship between Shen Aiqing and me With Lan'er in the room, I will trust you even more."

This is what they wanted, and she helped them achieve it, but from then on, she has been living in guilt towards Emperor Mingde and resentment towards Shen Jaye, tossing and turning day and night, unable to sleep peacefully.

Thinking about it now, it would be great if she let go of it earlier, and would be at Emperor Ming De's side and accompany him.

However, even if she wanted to do that, they probably wouldn't let her go.The lives of the people in the Lu family are still in Shen Zaiye's hands. Whenever he disagrees with her and wants to lose his temper, he will always threaten her.Although she knew that he was just talking, she knew that even if Shen Jaeye wouldn't do it, Jiao Changan would do it.

She was just a pawn in their hands, and she couldn't break free or escape.

Slowly climbed to the top of the mountain, the wind blew her clothes flying.Lu Zhilan breathed a sigh of relief, took out the wine jar in her bag, took a sip, and then sat down cross-legged.

"I've already done what I should do." She looked at Chongxian Mountain opposite where the imperial mausoleum was located, and said with a smile, "I have never been sorry to anyone in this world, except you."

"I'm not qualified to be buried for you. You probably don't want to see me anymore on Huangquan Road, so I won't go there. Just stay here."

He took the incense table and put it on, lit three incense sticks and inserted them into the incense burner, took out two cups, and put a medicine bottle on them.

"Is that last cup of tea good?" She lowered her eyes: "If you had been more on guard against me and had someone inspect the tea before drinking it, you wouldn't be in the situation you are today. After all, you are an emperor, why are you acting like that?" Stupid?"

Opening the medicine bottle and pouring Xiaoyaosan into the teacup, Lu Zhilan smiled in a low voice, and murmured: "Now you should have drank Mengpo soup, it's just fine if I go after you? This time I will put everything Let go of everything, there will be no one else in my heart, and when I catch up with you, I will tell you the truth."

"The civilian girl Lu Zhilan loves the emperor wholeheartedly, and only asks the emperor to let the civilian girl accompany you, and she will never leave her for the rest of her life."

Fangrui and the others finally felt something was wrong, and followed them up the mountain.However, when they arrived, Lu Zhilan had already raised her head, holding the teacup gracefully with her slender fingers, with her red lips slightly parted, she drank the contents of the cup in one gulp.

The strong autumn wind made her skirt and long sleeves flutter non-stop. Fangrui yelled, and saw her master turned around and smiled charmingly at her, with red lips and white teeth, eyes glowing, and then slowly fell down. down.

Xiaoyao San, Ren Xiaoyao, relieves the worries of the world and avoids the suffering of the world of mortals.If you can't be buried in a mountain, you should drink the same kind of poison anyway.

Fangrui was dumbfounded, she stumbled and ran over, picked her up and sniffed, and was dazed for a while.

Jiuchong Mountain and Chongxian Mountain are so far apart, how could she be willing to die here?

"Master..." Her throat was choked, and Fangrui couldn't help crying as she hugged her dead body.

She has always been by the master's side, and only she knows the master's struggle and pain, and knows her unwillingness and helplessness.She thought she could live her whole life peacefully, so didn't she still want to rob the prime minister?Wouldn't he be buried for Emperor Mingde?Why...why did you choose this path?
The sleeping Shen Zaiye was awakened inexplicably, stood up and looked around blankly, frowning.

Taohua turned over and woke up, her eyes were full of sadness: "Did something happen outside?"

"What?" Shen Zaiye raised his eyebrows: "You can still feel something wrong while you're asleep?"

Sitting up slowly, Taohua loosened her hair, frowned and said: "Suddenly I feel a little sad, I don't know if it is a dream or something, it seems that someone is crying."

Shen Zaiya paused, and listened carefully outside.

Indeed, someone was crying.

Fangrui came back crying, knelt outside the gate of Zhengchun Pavilion and shouted: "Master Xiang!"

With a jump in his heart, Shen Zaye quickly turned over and got out of bed, put on his robe and opened the door: "What's wrong?"

"Master...Master is on Jiuchong Mountain." Fang Rui kowtowed and said, "Please go and have a look, there is no way for slaves to bring her back."

Jiuchongshan?Shen Zaiye frowned, and immediately asked Zhanlu to prepare the car.Zhan Lu agreed, and Tao Hua in the room quickly got up, pulled her hair behind her back, put on her clothes, and followed Shen Zaiye out.

"What do you mean you can't bring it back?" When sitting in the car, Shen Zaiye was very puzzled: "Does she want to live in the mountains?"

Taohua frowned, feeling sad for some reason.Fangrui was crying all the way, and she refused to say anything to her, but told them to go quickly.

Shen Zaiye felt that if Lu Zhilan lost her temper and became drunk and refused to leave at worst, it would be fine for him to knock her out and take her back.But no matter what, he never expected that what he saw on Jiuchong Mountain would be Lu Zhilan's body.

Her face was pale and her body was stiff, but Lu Zhilan's expression was soft, as if she was just sleeping.But when he reached out to touch it, the cold air from the corpse came over and penetrated into the bone marrow.

Tao Hua was dumbfounded, and stared at her blankly: "How could this happen? Who did it?"

Shen Zaiye's face was ugly, he reached out to pick up the teacup beside him and looked at it, and seeing the three burnt incense sticks, he couldn't help closing his eyes.

"She committed suicide."

Taohua pursed her lips, knelt down beside her, frowned and said, "I thought she had put down Emperor Mingde."

"Yes." Shen Zaiye reached out to cover her face with a handkerchief: "I thought she put it down too."

It turned out that the entanglement with him for such a long time was not only to let her feel relieved, but also to ease his vigilance.He had always been preventing her from committing suicide, that is to say, he felt that she was looking away, that's why he didn't let anyone monitor her anymore, but he didn't expect...

When did Lu Zhilan become so smart?
Feeling panicked, Shen Zaiye stretched out his hand and wanted to hug her up, at least choose a good place for her to sleep, who knew that when he stretched out his hand, he found that her body was so heavy that he couldn't even move it.

"What's going on?" Shen Zaiye frowned, and looked back at Fangrui: "What did you do?"

Fangrui shook her head, choked with sobs and said: "The servants didn't do anything, but it's the same if the guards are called to carry them. No matter what, they can't lift the master... That's why the servants went to invite you."

The corpse, that is, the weight of a person, why is it so heavy?Shen Zaiye frowned, looked at Lu Zhilan on the ground with deep eyes, and asked in a low voice: "Are you unwilling to leave here? What's so good here? It's far away from the imperial mausoleum, and it's not a place with good geomantic omen."

Jiang Taohua's eyes turned red, she looked at her for a while, and asked Shen Zaiye: "Have you heard the story of He Manzi?"
